Strange power on

Hi all,
The other I found a quite strange boot in a laptop.
The thing is that after pressing the power on button, it takes from 10 to 15 minutes before BIOS actually starts.
You can hear some click inside after the 15 minutes, and then the BIOS starts loading with normality.
Apart from the strange wait, everything works perfectly.

The machine has like 3 or 4 years, so I'm starting to think that there is some kind of problem with power up, or with the BIOS initialization.
I was wondering if someone has a clue before I open it for further inspection.
